Leaders of the Islamic Revolution made their speeches during the anniversary of President Reisi’s first martial religion while giving a speech at a ceremony held on Monday.
With his remarks, Ayatollah Khamenei tackled the topic of nuclear negotiations.
“The issue of (nuclear) negotiations has been raised. I have a notice on the other side,” he said.
“It’s nonsense to say things like “Iran will not allow uranium to enrich.” No one is waiting for other people’s permission. The Islamic Republic has its own policies and methods and will pursue them (independently),” he emphasized.
“At another appropriate time, I will explain to the Iranian people why Americans and their Western allies are insisting on stopping the enrichment of Iranian uranium. I will make it clear what their true intentions are.”
“We don’t think that (nuclear) consultations will have consequences (with the US). We don’t know what will happen,” he declared.
Iranian negotiators led by Foreign Minister Abbas Araguchi were engaged in a fourth round discussion with the American delegation in Muscat on Sunday. The American team was led by the US President’s special envoy, Steve Witkoff.
The consultation mediated by Oman is described as productive and advances by both sides. The discussion focuses primarily on lifting sanctions through Iran’s nuclear program and a potential agreement to replace the 2015 landmark deal.
